Boehringer Ingelheim Chooses Orsini for JASCAYD® Specialty Pharmacy Partnership
Orsini's Partnership with Boehringer Ingelheim for JASCAYD®
In a notable development for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), Orsini, a leader in rare disease pharmacy services, has officially partnered with Boehringer Ingelheim as a specialty pharmacy provider for JASCAYD® (nerandomilast). This marked a significant addition to Orsini's offerings, reinforcing their commitment to supporting those affected by rare diseases.
Understanding JASCAYD® and IPF
JASCAYD® is an FDA-approved oral medication designed specifically for adult patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a progressively debilitating lung condition characterized by the thickening and scarring of lung tissue. As the disease progresses, patients often grapple with severe symptoms including persistent dry cough, shortness of breath, fatigue, significant weight loss, and muscle and joint pain. The introduction of JASCAYD® aims to slow the decline in lung function for these patients, offering them hope for managing their condition more effectively.
In a statement regarding this partnership, Orsini’s CEO Brandon Tom expressed pride in the longstanding relationship with Boehringer Ingelheim, highlighting the organization's extensive experience in the IPF space, serving over 6,000 patients. This partnership is not just about providing a new therapy; it reflects a continued dedication to enhancing patient care and expanding the options available for those living with IPF.
